Production of physical products always involves materials processing. Whether in electronic circuits, fabrics, medical tubing or car tires, sometimes things go wrong.

​

In many cases, end-users and brand owners are not familiar with the various materials and processes involved in the making of their products and need our assistance. Identifying the root cause of a failed batch, loss of performance or change of color requires the application of multidisciplinary tools. Once identified, we recommend corrective actions and support our clients back to spec.

​

Some problems we helped solve:

• Plastic components showed poor bonding during production of medical device.

• Food package generating a strong smell after sealing process

• Unidentified “black spots” identified after production of a cosmetic lotion

• Degradation of the performance of a cooling fluid passing in new a multi materials system

• Variation of protection coating color used in electronics component manufacturing
